- Dogs must wear AZ Husky Rescue tags and a collar at all times.
- Any difficulties must be communicated promptly to our team.
We know that it’s impossible to commit to a certain amount of time or availability, but we are grateful for whatever help you can provide!
What you'll get!
- The incredibly rewarding experience of seeing dogs go from homeless to their forever home
- You’ll become part of an amazingly supportive community of husky lovers.
- You will learn about internal rescue processes and non-profit operations.
- We are a 501c3 and volunteer work with us eligible to be used for college and grad school admissions applications.
- Exposure to lots of snuggles with adoptable pups!
